After walking out of the attic, Ning Fan seemed to be very exhausted. Cai Si, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't wait to step forward when he saw Ning Fan's figure.
"Master Zhao!"
"Ahem!"
When Ning Fan saw Cai Si's figure, there was a hint of embarrassment on his face, and he smiled gently: "Uncle Cai, do you have something to discuss?"
"Um!"
After sitting down, Cai Si explained everything Hu Hansheng said. Ning Fan showed a cold look on his face and said lightly: "One is for the benefit of all people, and the other is for the people of the world!"
"Really being a bitch and setting up a memorial arch at the same time."
"You can use force and plunder to speak so righteously, what a Hu family!"
Hearing Ning Fan's words, Cai Si also had a reserved look on his face: "Mr. Zhao, after all, the Hu family is one of the four famous families. Over the years, all famous families in the world have to respect the Hu family."
"They have salt shops all over the place, and their interests with the local government are also complicated. We can't just offend them!"
"You're just a clown. You sprinkled so much bait and the fish finally took the bait. How can you be afraid that the fish will be so fat that it will break the fishing rod?"
"Even if the fish can break the fishing rod, the fisherman still has the fishing net in his hand."
An unpredictable smile appeared on Ning Fan's face, he looked at Lin Yong who was not far away and said: "Uncle Lin, go and ask Shen Wansan and Jia Xu to come see me!"
"yes!"
Lin Yong grinned and left, while Ning Fan looked at Cai Si: "Uncle Cai just refuses sternly, but I want to see if a dog will jump over the wall if he gets angry."
"yes!"
There was a look of respect on Cai Si's face, and the stone hanging in her heart finally fell to the ground. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly turned back, showing a look that was hesitant to speak.
"If Uncle Cai has something to say, just say it."
"Mr. Zhao, my daughter has not yet left the court, please have mercy on me!"
After saying that, he bowed respectfully to Ning Fan again, raised his feet and walked out.
Cai Yan walked out of the attic, frowned slightly, stepped forward and asked in confusion: "Why is father here?"
"The Hu family came to buy the method of purifying refined salt!"
"The Hu family in Saibei?"
"Um!"
"Have you thought of a countermeasure?"
Ning Fan smiled without saying a word and gently held Cai Yan's little hand. The latter also had a complex look on his face and said softly: "You have been preparing for so long, just for the Hu family?"
Hearing Cai Yan's question, Ning Fan glanced at him in surprise, then nodded: "It's the Hu family, but it's not just the Hu family!"
"After all, the Hu family is a century-old family. Although its origins are criticized by people all over the world, its century-old heritage cannot be underestimated."
"You have to be careful."
"The Hu family should not be underestimated, and I am not at the mercy of others."
"So, your surname is Ning?"
Cai Yan suddenly raised his head and looked at Ning Fan seriously, but his expression was not too troubled.
"You knew already?"
"Um!"
Cai Yan nodded lightly and rested his head on Ning Fan's chest: "Who else can make Boss Shen of Daqin Commercial Bank stand up and down, and make the adults of the two academies and three departments lower their eyebrows and bow their heads, in this land of Huainan, who else can do it? "
"I didn't intentionally hide it from you, it's just..."
"No need to explain." Cai Yan gently put his finger on Ning Fan's mouth and said softly: "I don't blame you, and I don't mind, but... I want to know if your name is Ning Fan! "
"Is he the great hero in my mind who is invincible on the battlefield, strategizing in the court, able to govern the country and secure the country, and caring for the people below?"
"If you are talking about Ning Fan, then it is for your husband!"
Ning Fan smiled. He didn't expect this girl to be so alert. She guessed her identity at some point but has kept it secret until now.
"That's good!"
"Although I, Cai Yan, am the daughter of a merchant, it is difficult for me to fall in love with ordinary men."
"If one day, you are not driven by your original intention, and you and I have to separate, I will not blame you, even if there is no status."
"I just hope that there will always be a place for me in your heart!"
Hearing Cai Yan's words, Ning Fan's heart felt as if he had been hit hard by a heavy hammer. He hugged Cai Yan's delicate body tightly and nodded solemnly: "I will never forget that one day. The woman's name is Cai Yan and her courtesy name is Zhao Ji..."
"Don't call me, call yourself the king!"
"good!"
Ning Fan smiled: "I will never forget that there was a woman named Cai Yan, also known as Zhaoji, who was once outside King Yu's city and suffered..."
Cai Yan lay in Ning Fan's arms, quietly listening to him narrate the two people's experiences, the corners of his mouth gradually curved, whether he was a world-famous prince or a young and promising Ning Lang.
They are all the men she, Cai Yan, loves most of her life, and this is the only one!
"Master, Master Shen and Master Jia are here."
"Um!"
Cai Yan stood up from Ning Fan's arms, the two walked in, and glanced at Cai Yan subconsciously.
"I've met the young master."
"Well, sit down!"
Ning Fan did not let go of Cai Yan's hand, and said with a smile: "The Hu family has come to the door, did you know?"
"Um!"
Jia Xu seemed to have noticed that Ning Fan's identity had been exposed, and said softly: "The Hu family sent Hu Hansheng south this time, bringing several experts with him to prepare for the salt farm."
"oh?"
Ning Fan had a look of surprise on his face. He thought that the Hu family would directly attack the Cai family, but unexpectedly, they were planning to steal the secret recipe from the salt field!
"hehe!"
"Since they want to go, let them try."
"Lord!"
Jia Xu's expression suddenly became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "I have received news that over the years, the Hu family has been colluding with Bei Mo, secretly transporting pig iron and salt to it, and raising private soldiers in Saibei."
"Expected."
Ning Fan didn't seem surprised by the news, and said with a smile: "The four famous families are the richest in the world. They have been in our country for hundreds of years, and the local officials have been reduced to their vassals. It would be unreasonable to say that there is no evil intention. ."
"Wansan!"
"Is the north ending?"
"Sir, except for the border areas in Jiangbei, Hu's Salt Shop has been replaced by my Daming Salt Shop, but..."
"Just what?"
Ning Fan's expression condensed and he said calmly: "The Hu family won't just sit back and wait for death, right?"
"Yes!" Shen Wansan nodded, with a dark look on his face: "Our salt caravan was robbed twelve times in three days, and salt shops from all over the country also received letters one after another, saying they were suppressed by the local government. "
"hehe!"
Ning Fan smiled, with a harmless smile on his face: "It seems that Jin Yiwei's supervision is not strong enough!"
"You haven't seen any blood for half a year, right?"
"Wen He, some people think that after I leave the capital, I will no longer be able to wield the sword."
"Write a letter and ask Jiang Wei to see if he can use me to teach him how to kill people!"
